- Place a single layer of frozen chicken nuggets on a lined baking sheet and bake according to the package directions.
- Remove from the oven and set on a wire cooling rack.

- Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for about five minutes or until the cheese is melted.

Frequently Asked Questions
What kind of cheese should I use?
Swiss cheese is the traditional cheese used in Chicken Cordon Bleu, but you can use any type of cheese that you like. Other popular choices include cheddar cheese, mozzarella cheese, and provolone cheese.
What kind of ham should I use?
I used honey ham, but you can use any type of ham that you like. Other popular choices include prosciutto, Black Forest, and smoked ham.
How do I reheat Chicken Cordon Bleu Bites?
Chicken Cordon Bleu Bites can be reheated in the oven, microwave, or air fryer.
Can I freeze chicken cordon bleu bites?
No, since you’re using frozen chicken nuggets to begin with, I would advise against refreezing them after they’ve been topped and baked with the ham and cheese.
What are some dipping sauces that I can serve with Chicken Cordon Bleu Bites?
My preferred dipping sauce is honey mustard. However, you can serve these with a variety of sauces, including ranch dressing, barbecue sauce, marinara, or whatever sauce is your favorite. They’re also good without the sauce.
Recipe Tips And Tricks
- There’s no need to make your own chicken nuggets; the frozen ones work just as well.
- You don’t need to make your own dipping sauce; a pre-made sauce will be just as tasty.
